Beth I have seen that here

Beth I have seen that here too. The restroom is Men’s only until you have a baby then your wife can come in too.

And your right that IKEA messes up sometimes. I sent then a nastygram not that long ago regarding a sloppy negligence going on with their fluorescent bulb and battery recycling bins. The bins were so full they could not close. I also did not like the fact mercury laden broken bulbs were sitting a porous wood bin—they should be lined and better maintained.

But at least IKEA recycles so that’s a plus.

Besides that, I LOVE there kitchen products and their new summer collection. This is the only place that I can get a good price on large (glazed) pots for the patio. Also, I love the dinnerware. I bought 25 of the 365+ dinner bowls there were on sale for .99 cents!

Now Dennis why is it that you can take cool photos with a hulking camera and I, little ’o me, can’t sniff the Persian kilims without a Chinese lady looking at me like I’m a perv? I just happen to love the way jute and wool smell okay- sheesh :-)

I love IKEA for taking photos. No one ever seems to take notice, even when I have my big honking lens.

I love IKEA’s design,

I love IKEA’s design, too... but even they make mistakes:

(Unless it’s Swedish custom for men to don a dress when tickling babies.)

Actually I’m in my own

Actually I’m in my own context. At least I’m talking about type not politics.

Context? This is a personal

Context? This is a personal blog. ;^) It can be as random as anything.

Another Reason to Love IKEA...

Hello All: Custom type is irksome to the person (like myself) that wants access to it all. But don’t we love the results. Here is a refined Century Italic to enjoy: [img:Unknown_5109.png] I also like the slabs they have added to the romans. Hmm... moderns and slabs mixed together—has this even been done before? [img:Picture1_6689.png] Don’t get me started on the IKEA Futura too. Love that too. Mikey :-)
